Video: Security and Windows 8

With Vista and Windows 7, Microsoft accepted the fact that sometimes vulnerabilities just happen. Now, the security approach for the upcoming Windows 8 involves making changes that will result in attackers spending more time, energy, and thought into exploiting the code.

Coverity's senior security research scientist, Chris Valasek, digs deep into Windows security on a regular basis for his research. In this video he sits with SC Magazine's executive editor, Dan Kaplan, to discuss the upcoming release of Windows 8, what new security features have been implemented, and the new app store that's set to compete with what OS X offers.
